Owed IRS tax refund/Never has happend
This year my wife and i had to PAY the IRS. I had almost $6500 of tax withheld. She had barely anything at about $750. What does she need to fill out on her W2 so this will stop,and we will get a refund. I also have another side job and that job took $0 out for withheld taxes? Thank you.
Quick Answer:
The reason you owed tax is that not enough was withheld from your combined income throughout the year. To aim for a refund, you need to increase your total withholding.
For your wife, she needs to submit a new Form W-4
